(Bloomberg) – Singapore denied forced labour allegations from the US, responding after President Donald Trump proposed new tariffs linked to the practice in an attempt to rebuild his protectionist wall.

The city-state doesn’t condone forced labour and there’s no evidence of its role in the supply chains of goods associated with it, a spokesperson from the Ministry of Trade and Industry said in an emailed reply to Bloomberg News.

The Trump administration proposed new tariffs this week on dozens of nations following an inquiry into how trade partners handle goods allegedly produced by forced labour. Products from Singapore and some other nations would be subject to a 12.5% levy.


The ministry said that about one-third of Singapore’s domestic exports to the US will be affected by the tariffs, and pledged to continue engaging with Washington on the issue.

The US move is a major step in Trump’s push to reinstate the tariffs he imposed during his first year in office before they were deemed unconstitutional. The recommended duties are a result of probes launched under a separate legal authority known as Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974.

If given the 12.5% tariff to China, historically, it has responded to U.S. tariffs with a combination of high reciprocal duties, export controls, and legal action.

All mnc got ranking then jihukia usually go in lowest ranking while sinkie go in slightly higher rank but like 300 - 500 sgd pay difference the most but expect sinkie to outshine them. Can't perform also will go other job as they demotivate u.

Dare to do but don't dare to admit. Similar to smuggling stuff to China and North Korea.

Now you know why the PAP regime wants anyone from the globalist uniparty (D or R) to be the US president instead of Trump. It wanted to continue business as usual.

 

[laksaboy]

The usual suspects who gloated when the US Supreme Court ruled that collected tariffs must be 'refunded'... well, be careful of what you wish for.

Enjoy the 301.

Why is the average S'porean living from pay cheque to pay cheque? It is because of the obscene pay of our politicians, extremely high govt charges for essential services, persistent budget surpluses, COE premiums controlled by the govt and policies incentivising high-wage migration that contribute to a self-serving cycle that drives up the cost of everyday goods, public housing and transport.

S'pore's land area is severely constrained, directly inflating property, rental and commercial spaces. The supply and pricing of land remain tightly managed by govt policies, which impacts on both business overheads and household wealth.
